- uptime 4y agoThat was my first thought. People can invest a great deal into any object that can echo our input, or that does nothing to contradict it. Edit: we dehumanize people too just as completely.
- labrador 4y ago> we dehumanize people too just as completely I had a talk with someone recently about whether we should talk about Russians as Orcs because it is dehumanizing I'm re-watching Westworld right now because the new season 4 is about to start. The idea that a Google chat bot is sentient is laughable in the context and exploration of what makes up sentience that Westworld explores so masterfully.
- the_only_law 4y agoWasn't there a movie about this?
- labrador 4y agoIf you're talking about "Her" I hated that movie because the male human lead was such a depressed sad sack
- ASalazarMX 4y agoExactly! We watch movies to escape reality, not to be reminded of it.
- AlbertCory 4y ago"Her" was indeed one, but I think you might be talking about "Lars and the Real Girl." A very funny movie. Lars refrains from being intimate with her until they're married.
- labrador 4y agoLemoine must be on here because the post got flagged. This happens every time I mention him and sex dolls.
